Exegesis
The nominative pántes {πάντες | pántes} precedes the adverb homoiṓs {ὁμοίως | homoiṓs} and the future middle apoleîsthe {ἀπολεῖσθε | apoleîsthe}, highlighting the universal scope of the consequence. The adverb homoiṓs connects the listeners’ fate to parallel examples, and the middle voice of apoleîsthe emphasizes personal involvement in the impending judgment.
